This week is fully booked! If your child didn’t get a spot this week, we do still have space in our other cooking camps, or if your child really enjoys cooking and wants to do another camp with us join us for Week 4 Cooking camp. It is from 6/15 - 6/19 and every cooking camp week is different, with different instructors, yummy meals and fun games.

German Summer Camps are off to a great start! 🌞The theme this week was movement and games. Every day had a similar structure, first a Guten Morgen Chat in German and a little German talk about the weather, then the subject for the day was taught. In the video you see that they learned about numbers and colors. Followed by Group Snack time, which is always a favorite!.The kids even learned a few ‘Yogaübungen für Kinder’ and at the end had a little reflection time.

🧑🏼‍🍳The theme for Week 2 is cooking projects!

Our German summer camps offer children and teens a unique opportunity to dive into the language and culture of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland—right here in Boulder.

Through immersive activities, for example sports, campers build their language skills in a playful, supportive environment. Led by our experienced, native-speaking staff, these camps create a welcoming space where students gain cultural awareness and confidence while having an unforgettable summer adventure.

Children’s Camps:
Students ages 5–11 can join us five mornings a week from 9 – 1 pm. We will cook, stay active, explore STEM experiments, enjoy music and theater activities, and, of course, cook delicious meals together.

Teen Camps:
Students, ages 11–15: Preteens & Teens, let’s get out of the house for a few hours each week and spend time with friends! You can still sleep in and join us Tuesday–Thursday from 1:15pm. – 4:15pm. Activities include baking competitions, cooking, hiking, dancing, and outings around town by bus. We promise, it will not feel like school.

We are thrilled to offer summer programming running through June, July and August 2026.

Ganz großes Dankeschön ‘Thank you’ to and for donating giftcards and gifts to our Reading Competition!

Our annual Vorlesewettbewerb is a fun way for our young German students to show off their reading skills and also for the other students to learn about new books. 📚

IVA2 Oral Presentation is a standardized speaking exam that preps our student for the DSD 1.

Julia’s Class did an amazing job researching their chosen topic and presenting it in class. 👏🏼

We are very proud of them, especially because this class is a German Language Class for children that don’t speak German at home! ✨

We are so proud of our students that passed the DSD II exam!!! 🥳👏🏼

Fabrice Liesegang is the German Language Specialist for ZfA in the midwest and he always makes the diploma ceremony extra special! He invites our students to the German Honorary Consulate/German American Treffpunkt in Denver and together with Paul Maricle, Emeritus Honorary Consul of Germany, they celebrate our students achievements.

DSD II is an advanced German Language Exam, that proves the language proficiency to study at a German University. It certifies a B2 or C1 level (CEFR).

P.S. Anyone know the teacher that snuck in and took the exam? 😉
